DENVER -- Canada needs a win against Panama on Sunday in order to maintain its slim chance of advancing to the quarter-finals of the CONCACAF Gold Cup. But first, the Canadian team will have to score some goals. Canada has been held scoreless through the first two games of the tournament, losing their first match 1-0 to Martinique and their second 2-0 to Mexico. Interim head coach Colin Miller understands the predicament facing Canada heading into their third match. "We just cant pull a rabbit out of a hat here," Miller said Saturday. "We have to have a belief and commit more players forward that desperately want to score goals. Im a big fan of Panama. Im a big fan of how they play the game -- the intensity, the organization of the team." Canada meets Panama on what is expected to be a very hot Sunday afternoon at Sports Authority Field, the home of the Denver Broncos. But even with a win, the teams chances of advancing depend upon other results. To advance, the Canadians will have to finish the first round with one of the two best third-place records in the 12-team tournament. This means Canada would have to beat Panama and hope for a lopsided result in the Martinique-Mexico match later in the afternoon to squeeze through the second round on goal difference. Its a tall order but there is reason for optimism as Panama coach Julio Dely Valdes said in his pre-game press conference that he will be resting a number of starters. Panama has already advanced to the second stage of the Gold Cup with two wins in two games. Panama stunned Mexico 2-1 in its first game of the tournament and needed a late penalty against a 10-man Martinique on Thursday. Miller says any Panamanian team that takes the field is a formidable challenge. "Whoever wears the Panamanian jersey wears it with pride and theyre good enough to be with the Gold Cup squad, so we are in a position where we cannot possibly underestimate any opposition," Miler said. "We know that regardless of who the opposition is its not about Panama, its about Canada and what we do is our mentality is to try to get three points tomorrow." Canada was already using this Gold Cup tournament as a way to give younger players experience at the international level, but with veterans dropping out due to illness, injuries and other reasons, the countrys young talent has been getting more time than expected. The Canadians ended Thursdays 2-0 defeat to Mexico with two teenagers and a number of players in their early 20s on the field. With attackers Simeon Jackson and Randy Edwini-Bonsu out, Canada was dealt a further blow with Marcus Haber limping off after the first half with a heel injury. Miller said Haber would be "50/50" for Sundays game, but midfielder Julian de Guzman said Canada has adapted as best it can to the ever-changing team. "The spirit is definitely positive regardless of the situation -- players falling out and certain players not being around -- but it also gives an opportunity for the young guys to showcase themselves and for the most part theyve done pretty well," said de Guzman, who inherited the captains armband when Will Johnson was forced out of the squad with an illness. "Theyve showed that they have a good future ahead at the international level and hopefully this will be a way for them earn spots at some point in their career." Panama opted not to train in Saturdays blistering heat,while Canada had a brief session on the pitch theyll be using on Sunday. "The conditions will affect both teams," said forward Tosaint Ricketts who would likely be the choice to replace Haber, if needed. "Weve just got to dig deep and find the fighting spirit and try to get the points out of the match." If Canada can make it into the next round, they will travel to Baltimore for a quarter-final match next weekend. Air Max 180 For Sale . "It doesnt get any better than that," Giambi said. "Im speechless." The Indians are roaring toward October. Giambi belted a two-run, pinch-hit homer with two outs in the ninth inning to give Cleveland a shocking 5-4 win over the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday night, keeping the Indians up with the lead pack in the AL wild-card race.

Nike Air Vapormax Aus . Denis Coderre, the former federal MP who was elected mayor on Nov. 3, has drawn the ire of some Montreal Canadiens. During last nights game he tweeted: "Hello? Can we get a one-way ticket to (minor-league) Hamilton for David Desharnais please. Nike Air Vapormax Laceless .ca looks back at the stories and moments that made the year memorable.With just over a month left until the end of the Premier League season, its not only the race for the title that has pulses racing. While Leicester and Tottenham focus on English footballs top prize, up to five players also have their sights set on another award - the Golden Boot.Just three goals separate Harry Kane, Jamie Vardy, Sergio Aguero and Romelu Lukaku at the top of the standings, while Riyad Mahrez is a further two goals back. So who will join the likes of Alan Shearer, Thierry Henry and Cristiano Ronaldo in lifting the top-goalscorer gong? Here, we take an in-depth look at the contest... Previous Golden Boot winners Season Player Team Goals 2014/15 Sergio Aguero Man City 26 2013/14 Luis Suarez Liverpool 31 2012/13 Robin van Persie Man Utd 26 2011/12 Robin van Persie Arsenal 30 2010/11 Dimitar Berbatov Man Utd 20 Carlos Tevez Man City 20 State of playIts Kane who leads the way with 22 goals, the latest of which earned Spurs a point at Anfield in early April.One behind him is Leicester striker Vardy, who moved the Foxes a step closer to the title with a double at Sunderland on Sunday. Last seasons Golden Boot winner, Aguero, is locked on 18 goals with Everton frontman Lukaku, with the Argentine netting in Citys last outing against West Brom.The same, however, cannot be said for Lukaku, whose goals appear to have dried up following his breath-taking start to the campaign. Mahrez, meanwhile, completes the quintet on 16 goals having handed over the goalscoring mantle to Foxes team-mate Vardy in recent weeks. Premier League Golden Boot - 2015/16 Player Team Goals Harry Kane Tottenham 22 Jamie Vardy Leicester 21 Sergio Aguero Man City 18 Romelu Lukaku Everton 18 Riyad Mahrez Leicester 16 Remaining fixturesCurrent leader Kane, and table-toppers Vardy and Mahrez have just five games remaining to add to their respective tallies - although their quests for the Premier League title will no doubt take precedence.Kanes Tottenham travel away to Stoke, Chelsea and Newcastle in their final five games and welcome West Brom and Southampton to White Hart Lane. That run of games could benefit Kane, with 12 of his 22 goals coming on the road for Mauricio Pochettinos side.Leicesters fixtures fall opposite to their main title rivals Spurs, with three of their remaining five games taking place at the King Power Stadium. This slight adjustment is unlikely affect Vardy, whose 21 goals are split 11 at home and 10 away. Will Vardy or Mahrez add the Golden Boot to a potential Premier League winners medal? Its a different story for Mahrez, though. Only four of his 16 league goals have come at home, and with tough trips to Manchester United and Chelsea accounting for the remaining away fixtures, his challenge could well be weakened.Lukakus 18 goals have been evenly split at home and away so the only advantage he may receive comes by the fact he has at least one games advantage on his rivals.Similarly, Aguero has an extra 90 minutes of game time in which to catch Kane and Vardy. Thirteen of the Argentines 18 goals have come at the Etihad Stadium, but he will not have the luxury of home comforts, with four of Manchester Citys final six games coming on the road.dddddddddddd Remaining fixtures Harry Kane Jamie Vardy Sergio Aguero Romelu Lukaku Stoke (a) West Ham (h) Chelsea (a) Soton (h) - - Newcastle (a) Liverpool (a) West Brom (h) Swansea (h) Stoke (h) - Chelsea (a) Man Utd (a) Soton (a) Bmouth (h) Soton (h) Everton (h) Arsenal (h) Leicester (a) - - - Sunderland (a) Newcastle (a) Chelsea (a) Swansea (a) Norwich (h) Repeat performance?Lukaku would surpass his Golden Boot rivals and claim the prize if he were to repeat his goalscoring form against his remaining opponents. The Belgian, who has played two games fewer than Kane, Vardy and Mahrez, and one game fewer than Aguero, notched an impressive eight goals in the corresponding fixtures - a repeat would take his tally to 26 goals.Aguero would finish second if things were to repeat themselves, with his tally of 18 boosted by the six goals he scored in games with Newcastle and Chelsea alone. Could Romelu Lukaku make a late surge for the Golden Boot? Kane and Vardy would be tied for third place, with the pair adding just one and two goals to their current tallies if they were to replicate their goals from earlier on in the season.Mahrez, meanwhile, would remain fifth despite scoring six goals in the corresponding fixtures first time around. It appears the Algerian may have too big a gap to bridge. Golden Boot 15/16 (if results repeated) Player Team Current total Goals in reverse fixtures Total Romelu Lukaku Everton 18 +8 26 Sergio Aguero Man City 18 +6 24 Harry Kane Tottenham 22 +1 23 Jamie Vardy Leicester 21 +2 23 Riyad Mahrez Leicester 16 +6 22 Sky Sports pundit Matt Le Tissiers verdictI think Vardy will finish top goalscorer this season after he got himself back in the goals with a brilliant brace at Sunderland, and Leicester will go on and win the league from here. I dont think its just between those two now, though, I wouldnt put it past Aguero to score four goals in a game.Who do you think will hold their nerve and claim this seasons Golden Boot?
